Frank’s Ten Commandments of Statistics1.The probability of choosing one thing with a particular characteristic equalsthe percentage of things with that characteristic.2.Samples have STATISTICS. Populations have PARAMETERS.3.“Unusual” means more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean; “usual” means within 2standard deviations of the mean.4.“Or” means Addition Rule; “and” means Multiplication Rule5.If Frank says Binomial, I say npx.6.If σ (sigma/the standard deviation of the population) is known, use Z; if σ is unknown, use T.7.In a Hypothesis Test, the claim is ALWAYS about the population.8.In the Traditional Method, you are comparing POINTS (the Test Statistic and the Critical Value); in theP-Value Method, you are comparing AREAS (the P-Value and α (alpha)).9.If the P-Value is less than α (alpha), reject H0 (“If P is low, H0 must go”).10. The Critical Value (point) sets the boundary for α (area). The Test Statistic (point) sets the boundaryfor the P-Value (area).2

Formulas for Mean and Standard DeviationAll Sample Values Mean̅Std Dev Frequency Distribution ̅ ̅ Probability Distribution Chapter 5 - Discrete Probability DistributionsSec. 5.2A random variable is simply a number that can change, based on chance. It can either be discrete (countable, like how many eggs a hen might lay), orcontinuous (like how much a person weighs, which is not something you can count). Example: The number of Mexican-Americans in a jury of 12 members is arandom variable; it can be anywhere between 0 and 12. And it is a discrete random variable, because it is a number you can count.To find the mean and standard deviation of a probability distribution by hand, you need 5 columns of numbers: (1) x; (2) P(x); (3) x · P(x); (4) x2; (5) x2 · P(x).Using the Calculator: To find the mean and standard deviation of a probability distribution, First: STAT EDIT, then in L1 put in all the x values, and in L2 put inthe probability for each x value. Second: STAT CALC 1-Var Stats 1-Var Stats L1, L2 ENTER.Sec. 5.3 – 5.4 – Binomial ProbabilityRequirementsFixed number of trialsIndependent trialsTwo possible outcomesConstant probabilitiesFormulasµ n·p q 1-pUsing the Calculator1. To get the probability of a specific number: 2nd VARS binompdf (n, p, x) (which gives you theprobability of getting exactly x successes in n trials, when p is the probability of success in 1 trial).2. To get a cumulative probability: 2nd VARS binomcdf (n, p, x) (which gives you the probability ofgetting up to x successes in n trials, when p is the probability of success in 1 trial). IMPORTANT:there are variations on this one, which we will talk about.

(10-2)r is the sample correlationcoefficient. It can be between -1and 1.When you have 2 variables x and y,how do you predict y when you aregiven a particular x-value? (10-3)When you have 2 variables x and y,how do you predict an intervalestimate for y when you are givena particular x-value? (10-4)How much of the variation in y isexplained by the variation in x?(10-4)Calculator and Interpretation (Anderson: show value of t but not formula)Calculator: Enter data in L1 and L2, then STAT Test LinRegTTest. (Reg EQ VARS, Y-VARS, Function, Y1). P-Value tellsyou if there is a linear correlation. The test statistic is r, which measures the strength of the linear correlation.Interpretation: x is the explanatory variable; y is the response variable. H0: there no linear correlation; H1: there is a linearcorrelation. So, if P-Value , you reject H0, so there IS a linear correlation; if P-Value , you fail to reject H0, so there isNO linear correlation.Calculator: To create a scatterplot: Enter data in L1 and L2, then LinRegTTest; then 2nd Y Plot 1 On, select correct typeof plot. Then Zoom 9 (ZoomStat). To delete regression line from graph, Y , then clear equation from Y1.Two possible answers:(1) If there is a significant linear correlation, then you need to determine the Regression Equation (y a bx; LinRegTTestgives you a and b), then just plug in the given x-value. Or the easy way to find y for any particular value of x:Calculator: VARS Y-Vars 1:Function Enter Enter Input x-value in parentheses after Y1(2) If there is no significant linear correlation, then the best predicted value for y ̅. Calculator: VARS, 5, 5, ENTER.1. PROGRAM, INVT ENTER Area from left is 1- /2, DF n-2. This gives you t Critical Value.2. PROGRAM, PREDINT ENTER Input t Critical Value from Step 1, then input X value given in the problem. Hit Enter twiceto get the Interval.The percentage of variation in y that is explained by variation in x is r2, the coefficient of determination.Calculator: to find r2, enter data in L1 and L2, then LinRegTTest. It will give you r2. 1 sentence conclusion: “[r2]% of thevariation in [y-variable in words] can be explained by the variation in [x-variable in words].”Total Variation is ̅ . Explained Variation is Total Variation times r2. Unexplained Variation is Total Variationminus Explained Variation. To find them all, put x values in L1; put y values in L2; LinRegTTest; then PRGM VARATION.7

Chapter 10 - continuedFinding Total Deviation,Explained Deviation, andUnexplained Deviation,for a point. (10-4)Variation and Deviation are similar, but different. Variation relates to ALL the points in a set of correlated data. Deviationrelates to ONE specific point in a set of correlated data. Total Deviation for a specific point ̅ (the actual ycoordinate of the point minus the mean of all the y values). Explained Deviation for the point ̂ ̅ (the predicted valueof y when the x-coordinate of that point is plugged into the regression equation, minus the mean of all the y values).Unexplained Deviation for the point ̂ (the actual y-coordinate of the point minus the predicted value of y when thex-coordinate of that point is plugged into the regression equation).Chapter 11 – Chi-Square (X2) Problems (Hypothesis Tests, use checklist)Claim to be testedThe claim that an observedproportion (O) or or anexpected proportion (E).

Proportion problems: Use PRGM NPROP. This program asks you for SAMPLE P. If the problem gives you a Sample P (like 60%), then justenter that, as a decimal. If the problem does NOT give you a Sample P, then enter 0.5. Mean problems: Use PRGM NMEAN.Both programs (NPROP and NMEAN) ask you for the Margin of Error. Sometimes the Margin of Error is clear from the problem. But if you see theword “within” in the problem, the margin of error is whatever comes immediately after the word “within.” Standard Deviation problems: You are very rarely asked to find the Minimum Sample Size for a Standard Deviation problem. The only wayto answer this kind of problem is by looking at the table in the Triola Text, which is on page 364 of the 4th Edition.9

Assume that heights of men are normally distributed, witha mean of 69.0 in. and a standard deviation of 2.8 in. A daybed is 75 in. long. Find the percentage of men with heightsthat exceed the length of a day bed.“normally distributed” tells you it’s probably a Ch. 6 question.“Find the percentage” tells you it’s a Type 1 Ch. 6 question (use normalcdf)NA2. Assume that heights of men are normally distributed, witha mean of 69.0 in. and a standard deviation of 2.8 in. Indesigning a new bed, you want the length of the bed toequal or exceed the height of at least 95% of all men.What is the minimum length of this bed?“normally distributed” tells you it’s probably a Ch. 6 question.“What is the minimum length” tells you it’s NOT a Type 1 Ch. 6 question, so it’sa Type 2 Ch. 6 question (use invNorm)NA3. The cholesterol levels of men aged 18-24 are normallydistributed with a mean of 178.1 and a standard deviationof 40.7.

How many randomly selectedadults must you survey if you want to be 99% confidentthat the mean of the sample is within 500 of the truepopulation mean?“How many” tells you you are finding a minimum sample size.“Mean” tells you you’re finding a minimum sample size for a mean, not for aproportion.“Within” tells you that the next thing you see ( 500) is the margin of error.NA6. A simple random sample of 37 weights of pennies has amean of 2.4991g and a standard deviation of 0.0165g.Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the meanweight of all pennies.“Construct a confidence interval” tells you’re constructing a confidence interval(Ch. 7), NOT testing a hypothesis (Ch. 8).“Mean” tells you you’re constructing a confidence interval for a mean, not for aproportion.The phrase “and a standard deviation” is in a sentence about the sample, soyou know the sample standard deviation (s), but you don’t know the populationstandard deviation (σ), so you will use t, not z.n 37̅s 0.016510
